Recently visited Howe Cottage for a long weekend... the cottage is ideal for a couple or small family... excellent big bedrooms and big comfortable beds... the bathroom is a great size with a huge walk in shower... the kitchen and living area were ideal as we could all sit together whilst relaxing... well stocked kitchen with plenty of crockery and utensils and the owners left us the essentials to start our holiday, bread, milk, butter, bacon and eggs which was ideal... overall a great stay at Howe Cottage.

We had a lovely few days at Howe cottage. The cottage is in a good location for exploring the surrounding area. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and very comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. We appreciated the welcoming pack which was a lovely touch and the dog tags and dog treats. Our 2 dogs loved their stay. Was like home from home. Hope to return one day.
